Speed up sorting of <type>uuid</>, <type>bytea</>,

<para>
Support for abbreviated keys has also been added to the non-default
operator classes <literal>text_pattern_ops</>,
<literal>varchar_pattern_ops</>, and <literal>bpchar_pattern_ops</>.
Processing of ordered-set aggregates can also now exploit
abbreviated keys.

Is it really sensible to group f1f5ec1ef together with the others? I
think that one should be its own entry.
